History edit

On February 4, 1990 Greens gathered at California State University, Sacramento, authored bylaws, founded the GPCA, and started a voter registration drive.[1] The GPCA adopted the leaf-G logo which cartoonist Harry Driggs designed for the Green Party of San Francisco in the 1980s and which represents the letter G of the party name as a leaf.[a][4]

Qualifying for elections edit

On January 2, 1990, a month before foundation, Kent Smith sent notice to the secretary of state that the GPCA intends to qualify for the June 2, 1992 primary elections.[5] At that time, there were 420 people registered to vote with Green preference and, to obtain this qualification, the party needed to have registrations of at least one percent of the vote in the previous gubernatorial general election,[b] on December 31, 1991, the 154th day before the election.[c][6] Following the 1990 election, this amounted to 78,992 people.[7]

For the voter registration drive, the GPCA had two full-time fundraisers and hired Joe Louis Hoffman as full-time organizer.[8] By November 11, 1991, the party had 50,000 people registered with GPCA preference.[9] Late that November, the party received financial support and was able to pay people for obtaining registrations on a per-registration basis.[10] By 1992, the party registered over 100,000 people with GPCA preference and thereby qualified, which it since has done continuously.[11]

GPCA members used the election qualification to run for offices, each facing the none of the above vote option, and all but one advanced to the general.[12] Roger Donaldson ran for state assembly district 53, later decided against it, and sent out a letter urging voters to vote for none of the above instead of him.[13] The party did not have candidates for the presidential, nor the senatorial races.[14]

Party registrations were down to 91,342 people on October 4, 1993.[15] They must have still been at least 78,992 people on January 4, 1994, for the party was qualified for the June 7, 1994 primary elections.

The 1994 gubernatorial general election was the party’s first opportunity to earn qualification through electoral result. If the party had a candidate running for a statewide-elected office that received at least two percent of the vote, the party would maintain qualification until the next gubernatorial primary, that is if registrations stayed at least one fifteenth of one percent (0.067%) of the statewide total.[c][16] The GPCA did indeed have a party member, Margaret Garcia, who received 3.8% of the vote in the secretary of state election, 315,079 votes, well over the two percent threshold.[17]

8,900,593 people voted in the 1994 general election, raising the amount of registrations that could qualify a party to 89,006 people.[18] The GPCA did not have this amount on October 24, 1995, to qualify for the March 26, 1996 primary election in this way.[19] Had Garcia not received the total that she did, the GPCA would have lost its qualification.

In 1995, GPCA leaders, including Mike Feinstein, offered Ralph Nader the party’s qualification, which Nader accepted, to become the first person to use the GPCA’s qualification in a presidential election.[20] Margaret Garcia criticized this, saying “How ironic that a party espousing ‘future focus’ and long term planning is using Nader as a quick fix for our dwindling numbers.”[21]

The GPCA finally met the registrations requirement in September 1996, and had 95,080 people registered with Green preference on October 7.[22] The party has met the registration requirements since. The party has also had further electoral results that could maintain the party’s qualification, in every election since first qualifying.

Electoral milestones edit

Top-two primaries edit

The GPCA opposed the June 8, 2010 primary election’s Proposition 14, which would remove access to the general elections from political parties, limiting access to the two candidates that received the most votes in a nonpartisan blanket primary, for California offices, i.e. not for the presidential race, nor local races.[24] The proposition passed, faced court challenges, and survived those.

After Proposition 14’s implementation, three election cycles concluded without any Green candidates advancing from “top-two” primaries. Then, the 2018 US House elections saw three Green Party candidates advance to the general elections. Laura Wells ran in the House district CA-13 election, advanced from a six-candidate primary, and received 34,257 votes in the general election, 11.6%.[25] Kenneth Mejia ran in the House district CA-34 election, advanced from a three-candidate primary, and received 41,711 votes in the general election, 27.5%.[26] And Rodolfo Cortes-Barragan ran in the House district CA-40 election, advanced from the primary, and received 27,511 votes in the general election, 22.7%.[27] Each faced off against California Democratic Party (CDP) incumbent opponents in the general elections.

In 2020, Margaret Villa became the fourth Green candidate to advance from a top-two primary when she ran in the California State Assembly District 58 election, and she then received 41,100 votes in the general election, 25.1%.[28]

In 2022, Michael Kerr became the fifth when he ran in the US House of Representatives District CA-10 election, and he then received 52,965 votes in the general election, 21.1%.[29]

Platform edit

The GPCA espouses green politics and the Ten Key Values of ecological wisdom, grassroots democracy, social justice, nonviolence, decentralization, community-based economics, feminism, respect for diversity, personal and global responsibility, and sustainability.[30]

Organization edit

The key values of social justice, grassroots democracy, decentralization, respect for diversity, feminism, and personal and global responsibility influence the GPCA’s structure of party membership being inclusive of California residents who are disenfranchised by the state in California or the US,[d] party decisions being determined by general assemblies, limiting the role of its coordinating committees, entrusting its power to autonomous Green parties, composing coordinating committees through yearly, staggered-term elections of six women and six of any gender, and affiliating with the GPUS.[30] The GPCA elects delegates to the Green National Convention (GNC) proportionally, rejecting the feature of artificial disproportionality resulting from, in examples, the general ticket or district elections.[e][31]

The party’s most recent general assembly was held by video teleconference on November 12, 2022.[32] As of January 13, 2023, Laura Wells and David Cobb are the party’s official spokespeople; the party’s treasurer is Justin Richardson; and Jared Laiti is the GPCA liaison to the secretary of state.[33] The GPCA has a reference page of local-Green parties at www.cagreens.org/county-parties.

As of February 10, 2023, there are 97,253 people registered to vote with GPCA preference, 0.44%, the sixth-largest.[2] The three counties in which the party has the most people registered are Los Angeles (24,829), San Diego (7,911), and Alameda counties (5,611).[39] The counties in which the party has the highest percentages of the county’s registrations are Humboldt (1.68%), Mendocino (1.51%), and Trinity counties (1.03%).[40]

During the 2016 presidential election, GPCA registrations dropped 30%, from nearly 110,000 to 77,868.[41] Party spokesperson Mike Feinstein attributed the drop to outreach from the Sanders campaign, citing mailers sent to Greens.[42] Thousands of California Greens decided to support Sanders’ endeavor for the presidential nomination of the Democratic Party of the United States of America (DPUSA) through voting, which, as there was a semi-closed election, necessitated reregistration either with CDP preference, or with no party preference (NPP), and then, requesting a crossover ballot. Gayle McLaughlin, who had won mayoral election as a Green, reregistered with NPP to vote for Sanders.[43] The Peace and Freedom Party (PFP) saw a similar registration drop-off.[42] The lowest point for the GPCA was around California’s primary elections in June, and by the end of the general election, the GPCA’s registrations rose back to 94,647 people, and the PFP rose back to original levels, also.[44]

Jill Stein 2016 campaign staffer Bruce Dixon hypothesized that Sanders “aims to tie up activist energies and resources till the summer of 2016 when the only remaining choice will be the usual lesser of two evils.”[45] Dixon determined that Sanders was acting as a sheepdog candidate in favor of party politics within certain parties, the DPUSA in this case,[46] despite the parties being opposed to the candidate’s cause,[47] and that dissuades people from politics outside of those parties.[48] These directives result in a lack of parties and electoral wins of candidates that would advance the sheepdog’s stated politics.[49] They also result in captive constituencies[50] that feel compelled to support candidates that they deem the lessers of two evils.[51] Sheepdogs may advocate their strategy before exiting the electoral contest, which could occur because of disqualification, including unsuccessful primary elections, or retraction of candidacy, as was advocated by Sanders before his 2016 disqualification.[52]

Election results edit

Presidential edit

In the GPCA primary of the 1996 presidential election, Ralph Nader went unopposed.[58] Nader did not receive the Greens/Green Party USA nomination, though, at Green Gathering ’96, delegates from many states stated support for Nader.[59] In the California general election, Nader received 237,016 votes.[60]

In the GPCA primary of the 2000 presidential election, results were affected by California’s blanket primary which the US Supreme Court shortly after ruled unconstitutional in California Democratic Party v. Jones. Ralph Nader received a winning 94.4%, and Joel Kovel, the runner-up, received 5.6%.[61] At the GNC, in the presidential nomination election, Nader received a winning 92.5% of the potential votes, and Jello Biafra and Stephen Gaskin, the runners up, received 3.1% each.[62] In the California general election, Nader received 418,707 votes.[63]

In the GPCA primary of the 2004 presidential election, Peter Camejo received a winning 75.7%, and David Cobb, the runner-up, received 11.5%.[64] At the GNC, in the presidential nomination election, none of the options received majority support in the first round and, then, Camejo was eliminated because he didn’t give written indication that he would accept the nomination.[65] In the second round, Cobb received a winning 53% of the potential votes, and No Nominee, the runner up option, received 40%.[l][65] In that vote, the GPCA delegation gave to No Nominee 68.2% of its votes and to Cobb 26.5%.[65] In the California general election, Cobb received 40,771 votes, and Ralph Nader, the party-independent write-in candidate that Camejo was running mate to, received 20,714 votes.[66]

In the GPCA primary of the 2008 presidential election, Ralph Nader received a winning 60.7%, and Cynthia McKinney, the runner-up, received 26.6%.[67] At the GNC, Nader did not seek the GPUS presidential nomination and, in the presidential nomination election, McKinney received a winning 59.59% of the potential votes, and Nader, as runner up, received 14.48%.[m][68] In the California general election, McKinney received 38,774 votes, and Nader, on the Peace and Freedom Party (PFP) ballot line, received 108,381 votes.[69]

In the GPCA primary of the 2012 presidential election, Jill Stein received a winning 49.4%, and Roseanne Barr, the runner-up, received 39.8%.[70] At the GNC, in the presidential nomination election, Stein received a winning 66.96% of the potential votes, and Barr, as runner up, received 24.91%.[71] In the California general election, Stein received 85,638 votes, and Barr, on the PFP ballot line, received 53,824 votes.[72]

In the GPCA primary of the 2016 presidential election, Jill Stein received a winning 76.2%, and Darryl Cherney, the runner-up, received 10%.[73] At the GNC, in the presidential nomination election, Stein received a winning 82% of the potential votes, and William Kreml, the runner up, received 6%.[n][74] In the California general election, Stein received 278,657 votes, more than tripling her 2012 vote.[75] Stein did the same nationwide, receiving 1,457,218 votes.

In the GPCA primary of the 2020 presidential election, Howie Hawkins received a winning 36.2%, and the runner-up received 22.0%.[76] At the GNC, in the presidential nomination election, Hawkins received a winning 58.82% of the potential votes, and the runner up received 28.57%.[o][77] In the California general election, Hawkins received 81,029 votes.[78]

In 2014, to reform the election code due to the consequences of Proposition 14, the California State Legislature changed the criteria by which a party could qualify for elections. The threshold to qualify based on electoral results is now based on the sum of the votes cast for all of a party’s candidates for a statewide-elected office in the preceding gubernatorial primary election.[16]

For 2022 elections of statewide executive offices, the GPCA, together with the PFP, undertook a cooperative ballot-access strategy in continuation of the Howie Hawkins 2020 presidential campaign’s attempt for “left unity”, consisting of endorsing an inter-party slate.[88] A success, Greens met the threshold in the four races that the slate endorsed Greens. Luis J. Rodriguez was the slate’s gubernatorial candidate, and Heather Collins, another Green, deviated from the slate and also ran in that race, and only together did they receive votes to meet the threshold. Other Greens that deviated from the slate did not meet the threshold. Veronika Fimbres in the insurance commissioner election did not meet the threshold.[87] James “Henk” Conn and Pamela Elizondo in the US senatorial election did not meet the threshold.[89]

  6. ^ To reform the election code due to the consequences of Proposition 14, the California State Legislature changed the criteria by which a party could qualify for elections in 2014. The threshold to qualify for an election based on registrations is no longer derived from the vote in the preceding gubernatorial election, but rather, it is now 0.33 percent of the total number of voters registered (Gordon 2014).

  15. ^ Ballot Access News lumped together the differing No Nominee, None of the Above, and Uncommitted votes as votes for “no one,” and mistakenly has Moyowasifza-Curry receiving 3 votes from the Texas party, when she in fact received none from that party, though the total sum is correct.

External links 12 Further readingHistory editOn February 4 1990 Greens gathered at California State University Sacramento authored bylaws founded the GPCA and started a voter registration drive 1 The GPCA adopted the leaf G logo which cartoonist Harry Driggs designed for the Green Party of San Francisco in the 1980s and which represents the letter G of the party name as a leaf a 4 Qualifying for elections edit On January 2 1990 a month before foundation Kent Smith sent notice to the secretary of state that the GPCA intends to qualify for the June 2 1992 primary elections 5 At that time there were 420 people registered to vote with Green preference and to obtain this qualification the party needed to have registrations of at least one percent of the vote in the previous gubernatorial general election b on December 31 1991 the 154th day before the election c 6 Following the 1990 election this amounted to 78 992 people 7 For the voter registration drive the GPCA had two full time fundraisers and hired Joe Louis Hoffman as full time organizer 8 By November 11 1991 the party had 50 000 people registered with GPCA preference 9 Late that November the party received financial support and was able to pay people for obtaining registrations on a per registration basis 10 By 1992 the party registered over 100 000 people with GPCA preference and thereby qualified which it since has done continuously 11 GPCA members used the election qualification to run for offices each facing the none of the above vote option and all but one advanced to the general 12 Roger Donaldson ran for state assembly district 53 later decided against it and sent out a letter urging voters to vote for none of the above instead of him 13 The party did not have candidates for the presidential nor the senatorial races 14 Party registrations were down to 91 342 people on October 4 1993 15 They must have still been at least 78 992 people on January 4 1994 for the party was qualified for the June 7 1994 primary elections The 1994 gubernatorial general election was the party s first opportunity to earn qualification through electoral result If the party had a candidate running for a statewide elected office that received at least two percent of the vote the party would maintain qualification until the next gubernatorial primary that is if registrations stayed at least one fifteenth of one percent 0 067 of the statewide total c 16 The GPCA did indeed have a party member Margaret Garcia who received 3 8 of the vote in the secretary of state election 315 079 votes well over the two percent threshold 17 8 900 593 people voted in the 1994 general election raising the amount of registrations that could qualify a party to 89 006 people 18 The GPCA did not have this amount on October 24 1995 to qualify for the March 26 1996 primary election in this way 19 Had Garcia not received the total that she did the GPCA would have lost its qualification In 1995 GPCA leaders including Mike Feinstein offered Ralph Nader the party s qualification which Nader accepted to become the first person to use the GPCA s qualification in a presidential election 20 Margaret Garcia criticized this saying How ironic that a party espousing future focus and long term planning is using Nader as a quick fix for our dwindling numbers 21 The GPCA finally met the registrations requirement in September 1996 and had 95 080 people registered with Green preference on October 7 22 The party has met the registration requirements since The party has also had further electoral results that could maintain the party s qualification in every election since first qualifying Electoral milestones edit In 1996 Greens won seats to have a majority of the city council in Arcata with three of five seats lasting until 1998 23 In 2004 Greens won another council majority there lasting until 2006 In 1999 Audie Bock won election for state assembly office in Assembly district 16 In 2000 Matt Gonzalez won election for county office in San Francisco which is a consolidated city county In 2006 Gayle McLaughlin won election for mayoral office in Richmond Top two primaries edit The GPCA opposed the June 8 2010 primary election s Proposition 14 which would remove access to the general elections from political parties limiting access to the two candidates that received the most votes in a nonpartisan blanket primary for California offices i e not for the presidential race nor local races 24 The proposition passed faced court challenges and survived those After Proposition 14 s implementation three election cycles concluded without any Green candidates advancing from top two primaries Then the 2018 US House elections saw three Green Party candidates advance to the general elections Laura Wells ran in the House district CA 13 election advanced from a six candidate primary and received 34 257 votes in the general election 11 6 25 Kenneth Mejia ran in the House district CA 34 election advanced from a three candidate primary and received 41 711 votes in the general election 27 5 26 And Rodolfo Cortes Barragan ran in the House district CA 40 election advanced from the primary and received 27 511 votes in the general election 22 7 27 Each faced off against California Democratic Party CDP incumbent opponents in the general elections In 2020 Margaret Villa became the fourth Green candidate to advance from a top two primary when she ran in the California State Assembly District 58 election and she then received 41 100 votes in the general election 25 1 28 In 2022 Michael Kerr became the

GPCA registrations dropped 30 from nearly 110 000 to 77 868 41 Party spokesperson Mike Feinstein attributed the drop to outreach from the Sanders campaign citing mailers sent to Greens 42 Thousands of California Greens decided to support Sanders endeavor for the presidential nomination of the Democratic Party of the United States of America DPUSA through voting which as there was a semi closed election necessitated reregistration either with CDP preference or with no party preference NPP and then requesting a crossover ballot Gayle McLaughlin who had won mayoral election as a Green reregistered with NPP to vote for Sanders 43 The Peace and Freedom Party PFP saw a similar registration drop off 42 The lowest point for the GPCA was around California s primary elections in June and by the end of the general election the GPCA s registrations rose back to 94 647 people and the PFP rose back to original levels also 44 Jill Stein 2016 campaign staffer Bruce Dixon hypothesized that Sanders aims to tie up activist energies and resources till the summer of 2016 when the only remaining choice will be the usual lesser of two evils 45 Dixon determined that Sanders was acting as a sheepdog candidate in favor of party politics within certain parties the DPUSA in this case 46 despite the parties being opposed to the candidate s cause 47 and that dissuades people from politics outside of those parties 48 These directives result in a lack of parties and electoral wins of candidates that would advance the sheepdog s stated politics 49 They also result in captive constituencies 50 that feel compelled to support candidates that they deem the lessers of two evils 51 Sheepdogs may advocate their strategy before exiting the electoral contest which could occur because of disqualification including unsuccessful primary elections or retraction of candidacy as was advocated by Sanders before his 2016 disqualification 52 Current elected officials editAs of

qualify for elections The threshold to qualify based on electoral results is now based on the sum of the votes cast for all of a party s candidates for a statewide elected office in the preceding gubernatorial primary election 16 For 2022 elections of statewide executive offices the GPCA together with the PFP undertook a cooperative ballot access strategy in continuation of the Howie Hawkins 2020 presidential campaign s attempt for left unity consisting of endorsing an inter party slate 88 A success Greens met the threshold in the four races that the slate endorsed Greens Luis J Rodriguez was the slate s gubernatorial candidate and Heather Collins another Green deviated from the slate and also ran in that race and only together did they receive votes to meet the threshold Other Greens that deviated from the slate did not meet the threshold Veronika Fimbres in the insurance commissioner election did not meet the threshold 87 James Henk Conn and Pamela Elizondo in the US senatorial election did not meet the threshold 89 Notable members editBarbara Becnel Medea Benjamin Jello Biafra Audie Bock Ellen Brown Peter Camejo Darryl Cherney David Cobb activist Harry Driggs Mike Feinstein

races a b This criteria was replaced with the passage of Assembly Bill No 2351 provided that they affirm the Ten Key Values and meet other criteria Betty Traynor a leader within the party wrote an article for Green Pages that advocates proportional representation 1999 and referenced Lani Guinier s book Lift Every Voice where Guinier wrote I began to see how on some level all districting is gerrymandering meaning that the lines of voting districts are drawn by politicians to advantage those likely to support a particular viewpoint or to be sympathetic to the overtures of an individual candidate 1998 p 257 To reform the election code due to the consequences of Proposition 14 the California State Legislature changed the criteria by which a party could qualify for elections in 2014
